What does a TRUMP presidency look like?

Isn't shiksa female only?

That could be right.

Yes. Yi gets his Elders membership card revoked.

But I know the lyrics to Hava Nagila!

Yes. Yi gets his Elders membership card revoked. 

Yes, because none of the affiliated members would ever think of feigning ignorance of Jewish culture.  We can run the whole world, all right, but a simple act of misdirection is beyond us.

If goy is pejorative, is there a neutral word in Yiddish for non-Jew?

I am going to have a word with the people I thought were my friends who have called me a goy

What's a non-pejorative word for an annoying know-it-all with delusions of genius? I'm asking for a friend.

I would imagine it's a fascism thing - alluding to anti-semitism. "Goy" is a derogatory Yiddish word for a non-Jew (the more polite English term is "gentile").

I could think of a few other choice words in Yiddish that they can use to describe themselves since they enjoy Yiddish so much, like "meshugga" or "schmuck" ...

I thought goy was the neutral term and shiksa was the pejorative.

Shiksa is a somewhat pejorative term for a non-Jewish woman.

Note that in contrast to "goy", which is "sometimes disparaging", shiksa is "often disparaging":

It's not strongly pejorative - the Webster dictionary says it is "sometimes disparaging".

Here's a whole article on whether it is or is not offensive:

https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.jta.org/2019/04/22/culture/is-goy-a-slur/amp

It certainly did not start out offensive - it just means "nation" - but like any term on the euphemism treadmill, it gained an offensive tinge over time. It is usual, for English speakers, to use "gentile" rather than "goy" for that reason - you may call a friend a "goy" but you wouldn't want to use the term to describe a stranger whose good opinion you wanted to keep ...

If goy is pejorative, is there a neutral word in Yiddish for non-Jew?

My understanding is that it is a bit complex - the word was originally from the Hebrew, is found on the Old Testament, and was neutral in that context (it literally means "nation"). It gained it pejorative meaning over time, and in particular as a loan word in English - often contrasted with the neutral "gentile". Even so, it isn't strongly pejorative.
